CURRENT STUDY: Research under way within the "Science and Civili:;a tion in China" project, in collaboration with Dr. Clive Gates and Dr. William Jenner, for the Section on Agriculture in Vol. VI. This involves a complete translation of the important No1·thern Wei agricultural treatise Chhi Min Yao Shu. When this has been com pleted it is intended to take a closer look at s&me or the later agri cultural works which treat of the Southern irrigated cultivation. The agricultural fragments remaining from the Han will also be carefully examined. All these activities are preliminary to the writing of the chapters on agriculture, for which a great mass of notes has already been filed and classified, and a very detailed scheme of sub-headings drawn up.

CHARACTER OF PUBLISHED WORK: Initially, investigations into the relationship between economic growth and technological change. More recently. publications· partly dealing with the scientific (or non scientific) nature of Chinese social thought and the relationship of this to policy-making and ultimately to economi~ progress.
CURRENT STUDY: A comprehensive social science history project that attempts to combine concepts and theories of economics. sociology and political science, and such techniques as prosopography, statistics, computer analysis, etc. in an investigation of the relation ship of socio-political change to economic progress and to the invention, adoption and abandonment of new i·echniquee in agriculture and industry. Thie research is primarily concerned with· the period from ca. 900 - ca. 1500 A. D. It involves the isolation of such variables as local family, clan and lineage structures, the relationship of these to the structure of local and national socio-political eliles, the effect of conflict resolution within the polity on economic policy making. changes and impact of Chinese social (science?) thought on legislation, the effect of different genres of laws on the levels of risk and the expansion or contraction of markets, and the ultimate determinants of economic and technological progress.
OTHJ!:R INTERESTS: J. An examination as to whether or not a syslemalic examination Qf Chinese Pharmaceutical manuals can provide a means to determine temporal changes of the importance of different medicinal . ingredients in foreign trade. 2. A~ examination as to whether or not a systematic examination of Chinese mathematical works can yield enough information to establish secular price indexes.

CHARACTER OF PUBLISHED WORK: I have collaborated' with Joseph Needham on a great variety of subjects for the "Science and Civilisation in China" project, but in general we have published on topics related to the history of biology and medicine, and it is on these subjects that we are now working for Vol, VI.
CURRENT STUDY: The section on botany is three-quarters finished. Some sections on medicine are substantially done, such as hygiene, public health, medical education, ancient noaology, etc., but we are at present completing the sub-section on acupuncture, its history and possible rationale, OTHER INTERESTS: There seem to be several 11erious gaps in the history of medicine in China, in spite of previous publications in such subjects--for instance, smallpox and variolatioo, all aspects of anatomy, and psycho-physiological disease with psychopathology and psychiatry.

Accurateiocalion of novae and supernovae. have concentrated almost exclusively on the astronomical treatises in the histories. CUHIIENT STUDY: (al A joint study with two radio astronomers of the supernovae of A.O. 185 and 393. These supernovae are recorded only in China (in the treatises of the Hou Han Shu and Chin Shu). (bl A detailed investigation (nearing completion) of close conjunctions of planets with one another and with stare recorded in the treatises of all of the dynastic histories from the Ch'ien Han Shu to the Yuan Shih, and also the KorylS-sa. In every case a planet is described as concealing another planet or star (the terms ~ and shih are almost invariably used). The object of the investigation iEI to test the observations against various ephemerides of the planets. The time scale is nearly an order of magnitude longer tJ1an that covered by telescopic observations. CYTIIER INTERESTS: I am becoming increasingly interested in the analysis of Chinese (and Korean) astronomical observations for their own sake. I have done much work--as yet unpublished- on the rcliahility of solar eclipee records in the a1,1tronomical trcatii.es of the Ch'icn llan Shu, llou llan Shu and Chin Shu (most of this is contained in my Ph. O. thesis) and would wish to extend lliie to later dynasties. Similar work is planned for other types of observation involving the Moon and planets.
